I'm here to chase the stars

Chapter 24
"Have you finished writing the song for the next issue?" Luo Yang asked Xu Fang who was lying on the bed.

Tomorrow Friday, the second episode will be aired, the day after tomorrow will be rehearsed, and a new episode will be recorded on the weekend.

Luo Yang knew that he would not be able to reach the end, but he still hoped to go one step further.

After a while, it will be a one-on-one session with the tutor. To determine the song selection for the next issue, he is in a good mood. Zou Miao, who was almost eliminated in the last issue, has been grey-headed these days.

He Tao, who was in the same dormitory, worked harder than them, making people have to accept, while Xu Fang was simply a negative example.

The title of the teaching material is "To be talented is to not be a human being"!
"It's finished." Xu Fang looked hopeless.

The TV series he was chasing had its finale the day after tomorrow, but he had to hand in his phone the day after tomorrow, and he couldn't get it back at night, it was his life!
Luo Yang thought that Xu Fang was not satisfied with the newly written song, so he stopped bothering and went to the practice room.

If he knew what Xu Fang was thinking, maybe there would be the first tragedy since Jiwai Entertainment established the training camp.

In the afternoon, Xu Fang went to find Wei Wan with the song he wrote.

Wei Wan just went to catch up with an announcement in the past two days, and she came back in a hurry, looking in a good mood, and she was looking forward to Xu Fang's new song very much.

In her opinion, Xu Fang is like a treasure box with infinite possibilities, or a bag of rainbow candies with unpredictable tastes, which can always surprise her.

In front of the camera, Wei Wan tried hard to conceal her eagerness and maintained her instructor's calmness. After Xu Fang sat down, she asked, "How is it? Time is getting tighter and tighter. Is there any pressure?"

Xu Fang never cared about the camera, and got acquainted with Wei Wan again, he laughed and said: "Fortunately, when I think of the bet with the teacher, my thoughts are like a spring."

Wei Wan gave him a white look: "Really, show it to me."

Xu Fang refused: "Teacher, should I honor the group photo first?"

"Didn't you take a lot of photos before?"

"Huh? When?" Xu Fang was puzzled.

Wei Wan reminded: "I ate sushi that day, and the recording of the second episode will end."

Xu Da was startled: "Does it count if there are more than a dozen people together?"

Wei Wanli said bluntly: "Why don't you count, there are you and me, what is it if it's not a group photo?"

Unable to refute!

Xu Fang quickly turned to the staff who were recording: "This section must not be cut, let the audience from all over the country comment on it!"

The staff smiled and pretended they didn't hear it. They have been recording for so long, and the one-on-one session with the tutor is the least serious of you.

Wei Wan stopped joking with him, and said sternly: "Okay, I keep my word, and I won't miss you in the group photo. Time is limited, so let's talk about song selection first."

Xu Fang also took it seriously, and handed over the written score.

Wei Wan took the sheet music, as if she had opened a drawer of a treasure box, her heart was pounding, and the title of the song that caught her eye made her a little puzzled: ""Under the Sand"?"

Some weird names.

Looking at the lyrics again, it seems to be a love song?
Not sweet at all, kind of bitter!
After reading "The more true the love, the deeper the hurt" and "Bury love in the sand, there will be news about you", Wei Wan looked up at Xu Fang, and joked with some surprise: "Writing so sad , so deep, I didn’t expect you to have a lot of emotional experience.”

Xu Fang would not allow this kind of misunderstanding to happen, and immediately threw the pot away: "How is it possible, I have been single for many years, and I have no relationship experience. You see, I am young, handsome and talented, how could I suffer such a serious emotional injury."

"It's not your experience?" Wei Wan's playful tone revealed obvious distrust.

Xu Fang explained solemnly: "Of course not, not everything has to be experienced in person to feel emotional. This is the experience of friends around me. When he broke up with his girlfriend, he insisted on going to no man's land to relax. I'm afraid He couldn't think about it, so he followed."

"And then?" Wei Wan asked with great concern as if she had heard a sad love story.

Xu Fang sighed: "Teacher, have you ever seen a husky digging dirt?"

"..." Wei Wan didn't answer, always thinking that Xu put down a word would not be a good word.

Sure enough, Xu Fang went on to say: "Well, when we arrived at the place, my friend was exhausted within a long time. He was rolling around on the ground and refused to go back. If it wasn't for seeing him very sad, I really wanted to leave him like that." In the desert, let him dig the soil and play by himself."

Wei Wan really couldn't bear Xu Fang's nonsense in front of the camera, wanted to break him back, and said with a smile: "Although you said that, I can feel that you care about your friend very much, otherwise you wouldn't have gone to hell with him." People are distracted, without trying to understand, without empathy, and it is difficult to write this experience into a song."

Xu Fang quickly denied: "Art comes from life and is higher than life. I really don't care about him that much."

"..." Wei Wan stared at Xu Fang fiercely, decided not to know any background stories, patted the sheet music on the table, and said angrily, "You are right here, sing this song for me."

"Okay." Xu Fang was honest, sat on the chair, and began to sing, "Everyone has someone who can't forget, and thoughts will pass through your soul like fine sand..."

No matter how insincere what Xu Fang said, Wei Wan had to admit that this song was very nice.

In addition to the song, Xu Fang's singing is almost perfect, especially the conversion of true and false sounds, and there is no fault at all.

It is precisely because of this true-to-false sound conversion technique that this song sounds particularly pleasant to the ear.

"If it were me, how would I sing this song?" Wei Wan looked at the score and fell into deep thought.

After thinking about it for a while, she found that Xu Fang's handling method, from articulation, breathing, and conversion of true and false sounds, seemed to be the best, and even she couldn't handle it better.

Write your own song with other people's feelings, and write it so well!

While Wei Wan was amazed, she suddenly felt a sense of urgency. She has debuted for two years, but she has made limited progress in songwriting, especially in writing lyrics.

If it wasn't for Xu Fang's immaturity in arranging music, and arranging music is precisely her strong point, she would feel that she is really unqualified as a mentor.

"I have to work hard too." Wei Wan secretly said in her heart, she looked up and found Xu Fang looking at her.

Xu Fang didn't expect that Wei Wan would also be distracted. He didn't remind her, and waited for her to raise her head before asking, "How is it?"

Wei Wan nodded: "No problem, it's very nice, let's decide on this song, I saw the chords, and it's pretty good, you can discuss about harmony and orchestration, you have a talent for arranging, and you're making rapid progress , it's just short of... what are you laughing at?"

Xu Fang shook his head: "It's nothing, teacher, you can continue to praise, I can bear it."

"Pigeon..." Wei Wan almost spit out the final vowel behind it, and quickly reminded herself to calm down, sat aside the MIDI keyboard, and said aggressively to Xu Fang, "Speak about the arrangement!"

So fierce!

"Okay." Xu Fang obediently and quickly plunged into it.
